Libuše

Mythical Bohemian princess

A life on the record,
dated by its sources.

Roles, not beliefs

Overview

From Wikipedia, quoted unmodified under CC BY-SA 4.0; the article’s history is its list of authors.

Life

Affiliation

As a third party recorded it, often for one period of a life.

What this means

As the records give them: every row is a third party’s statement, not a self-description, and a role or an affiliation is often held for one period of a life only. An affiliation is not a belief, and this site does not ask anyone about theirs. For an office: which one, for how long, and where the records give an ordinal or the holders either side. Recognition of a tenure is never universal: contested lines appear as overlapping tenures rather than as one corrected sequence.

Family

The family of Libuše

Parents, consorts and children as the accounts give them. Choose a consort to see the children the stories give the two.

Accounts differ about a god’s family. Where they name different parents, the tree sets them side by side instead of choosing one.

Kinship in an account 5

What this means

Parentage as a named source tells it. Not an independently established biological relationship, and different accounts disagree.

Does not imply an independently established biological relationship · agreement between accounts · marriage as a legal institution · exclusivity, or a single canonical pairing · shared parentage in every account · descent from the same generation in a single tree
